Congress will be bringing a Bill to the floor that would allow the clowns of FEMA to deploy regular army IMMEDIATELY.

Well, if that's the case you're not the only one looking psychotic. My husband is watching this on TV more closely, while I am here more. He came
to the conclusion that this is entirely possible after watching the coverage since Monday.

Regardless of the reality, it could be easy for the government to add another nail to the coffin of this country's freedoms.

In this case I feel the water level had everything to do with what seem was a slow response time. I also feel the poor, sick and the elder people
alone may not have been offered a way out of New Orleans as far a transportation prior to the flood.

Oh, I agree. Both those things played heavily into this tragedy.

Seems those levees should have been better fortified YEARS ago and maintained.
And, civilians should have had a better evacuation plan. I dunno, like the mayor of NOLA commandeering buses to take people out.

I also wonder how many people may have gone BACK home once the eye passed and the storm lessened some.
